During this period, she intentionally or unintentionally revealed some 'secrets' to Yuzhu.
As expected, Ling Shuangxue, who had been biding her time for a long time, began to take the initiative.
Currently, the Shuiyun Kingdom desperately needs the treasury's silver to distribute for disaster relief, and losing the treasury key is a serious matter.
Relying on her 'profound' martial arts skills, Ling Shuangxue secretly entered the palace, attempting to find the key to the national treasury.
Unfortunately, that was just a trap she had set beforehand.
Even though Ling Shuangxue's martial arts skills were superb, the various poisonous traps were enough to give her trouble, not to mention the palace guards who were investigating.
Then they would only flee to one place.
It feels like killing two birds with one stone, which is pretty good.
On the surface, Fu Sang still pretended not to know, and asked, "Where did the assassin escape to?"
The female official replied, "Your Majesty, the assassin seems to have fled in the direction of..."
She hesitated, unsure whether she should speak.
The guards tracked the assassin to Qingya Palace, but were stopped by Young Master Ouyang and dared not enter to search.
Everyone in Shuiyun Kingdom knows that Her Majesty the Empress dotes on Ouyang Zimo, and even if Ouyang Zimo disrespects her, she will not provoke her anger.
Therefore, the guards dared not boldly go in to search.
An assassin entering the palace was a serious matter that could not be ignored, so the female official rushed over to report it.
Fu Sang's eyes revealed a hint of authority as he said, "Speak quickly."
The female official trembled with fright and hurriedly said respectfully, "It seems the assassin has entered Qingya Palace, Your Majesty. This servant led people to search, but was stopped by Prince Ouyang."
Fu Sang smiled faintly and said, "No wonder you dare not speak."
A cold sweat broke out on the female official's back. She said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. This servant dared not offend Prince Ouyang, that's why..."
“This is a one-time exception.” Fu Sang interrupted her, and continued, “Is the assassin still in Qingya Palace?”
“This servant has had people guarding Qingya Palace the whole time, and has not allowed anyone to enter or leave.”
Fu Sang gave an inscrutable smile and said, "Well done. Come with me to take a look."
The female official accompanied them, saying, "That assassin is highly skilled in martial arts; I wonder if he will harm Prince Ouyang."
What should we do if the assassin takes control of Ouyang the hostage?
These palace servants dared not enter Qingya Palace out of fear of Her Majesty the Empress, lest something happen to the hostage whom Her Majesty the Empress favored.
If the assassins threaten Ouyang the hostage and try to escape, they will inevitably find themselves in a difficult situation.
A strange glint flashed in Fu Sang's eyes as he said, "She won't hurt Ouyang Zimo, no matter who she hurts."
The female official did not understand Her Majesty the Empress's words, nor did she dare to speculate on the meaning behind them.
Fu Sang had never been to Qingya Palace.
Since the last banquet, Ouyang Ziming had been holding back her anger, so she naturally didn't take the initiative to seek out Fu Sang.
Therefore, Fusang's arrival at Qingya Palace caught everyone off guard.
"Her Majesty the Empress has arrived!"
Ouyang Ziming was lying on the same bed with Ling Shuangxue when she heard the voices of the servants outside, so she quickly got up and sat up.
Ling Shuangxue lacked composure and also became flustered.
In this situation, if they were caught in the act, both of them would become prisoners.
Ouyang Ziming put on her clothes, looked at the beautiful woman lying on the bed, and said, "Hurry up and get ready to hide. I'll go out and stop her."
"Mmm." Ling Shuangxue revealed her vulnerable side.
Ling Shuangxue was not from a matriarchal society, and she willingly became Ouyang Ziming's submissive woman, which greatly satisfied Ouyang Ziming's pride.
He reached out and stroked the woman's pale cheek, gently coaxing her, "I will protect you, don't worry."
After saying that, he strode outside.
